Alkane oxidation and the emulsification of crude oil by a Rhodococcus species
(Dr. ingeniøravhandling, 0809-103X; 2000:106, Doctoral thesis, 2000)The objective of this work was to study the physiology of one crude oil emulsifying bacterium, with particular emphasis on its emulsifying system. There is a potential use of oil emulsifying bacteria (OEB) for the clean ... -
Amphiphilic polysaccharides: Stabilization of dispersed two-phase systems and gelling properties of chitosans and propylene glycol alginates
(Doctoral thesis at NTNU;2015:325, Doctoral thesis, 2015)For many of the polysaccharides with reported surface active and emulsifying properties, this has been attributed to an associated protein fraction. However, certain polysaccharides, such as chitosans and propylene glycol ... -
An NMR investigation of lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases
(Doctoral theses;2018:337, Doctoral thesis, 2018)Bioeconomy requires sustainable sources of biomass (e.g. chitin and cellulose) to use as energy, feed and biomaterials. In the quest of biomass conversion, lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases (LPMOs) are key enzymatic ... -
Analysis and Applications of Microorganisms from a Chalk Oil Reservoir in the North Sea
(Doktoravhandlinger ved NTNU, 1503-8181; 2009:41, Doctoral thesis, 2009)Ekofisk er et krittsteinsreservoar i den norske sektoren av Nordsjøen, og dette reservoaret inneholdt aktive og diverse mikrobielle samfunn. Mikrobielle aktiviteter kan medføre skadelige effekter som surgjøring av reservoarer, ... -
Analysis of genes for the biosynthesis of polyene macrocyclic compounds in streptomycetes isolated from the Trondheimsfjord
